A step-up power supply device includes: a step-up converter; a startup circuit which controls the on/off operation of a switch element of the step-up converter when an output voltage of the device is smaller than a reference voltage; and a control circuit which operates in substitution for the startup circuit when the output voltage is higher than the reference voltage to control the on/off operation of the switch element such that the output voltage reaches a target value. The startup circuit includes an oscillation circuit for generating a pulse signal which has a predetermined on/off ratio, a current comparison circuit for comparing a current of the switch element with a predetermined restriction value, and a drive circuit for generating a drive signal based on which the switch element is turned on/off, the drive signal being generated from the pulse signal to turn on the switch element, and the drive signal being generated from the output of the current comparison circuit or the pulse signal to turn off the switch element.

The present invention provides a current-mode control step-up converter capable of reducing the minimum duty ratio to a sufficiently small value and facilitating the setting of the maximum duty ratio. The step-up converter comprises a current detector 9 for generating a current detection signal Vc corresponding to the current of a rectifier 4; an error amplifier 8 for generating an error signal Ve corresponding to an output DC voltage Vo; and a control circuit 10 for turning ON/OFF the main switch 3 on the basis of the current detection signal Vc and the error signal Ve. The control circuit 10 comprises a comparator 11 and a timer circuit 12. With this configuration, the ON time of the main switch 3 is set at a predetermined value, and the valley value of an inductor current changing in a triangular waveform is controlled. Hence, the OFF time of the main switch is adjusted to stabilize the output. Since the ON time of the main switch 3 can be set as desired, the minimum duty ratio can be reduced to zero or a sufficiently small value.

A DC-DC converter has switching means which generates a continuous switching voltage having a specified period from an input voltage and outputs the generated switching voltage, output voltage generating means which receives the switching voltage at an inductor and generates an output voltage obtained by rectifying and smoothing a voltage generated in the inductor, lamp signal generating means which generates a lamp signal and outputs the generated lamp signal, and control means which performs an arithmetic operation using a current signal relative to a current flowing in the inductor, an error signal relative to the output voltage, and the lamp signal to generate a control signal for controlling the operation of the switching means and outputs the generated control signal to the switching means. The lamp signal generating means includes first signal generating means for generating a first output signal based on a frequency divided signal having first and second periods obtained by dividing the time of a clock signal having the specified period and second signal generating means for generating a second output signal having a phase 180 degrees different from the phase of the first output signal based on the frequency divided signal, generates the lamp signal which rises after being held at a constant value for a specified time period in each of the first and second periods, and outputs the generated lamp signal.
